The Elections in Cincinnati.

CINCINNATI, O., April 4.-The
most interesting, uncertain and sur
prising election for years was that
of to-day. 1t was at first thought
that the labor party would draw its
strength more from the democrats
than from the republicans, but the
returns show heavy drafts in repub-
lican districts, especially in the Ger
man quarter. The eleventh ward,
German ward, hitherto a republi-
can stronghold, has been carried to.
day by the labor party.
At this time, eleven o'clock to-
night, the board of election has just
completed footing on the head of
the ticket, which indicates w. III.
Stevenson, the labor candidate for
Mayor, to be elected by ten votes.
The figures are Stevenson, 1T, ALA
Smfa (rep.) II, 404; Matson, (dem.)
II ,547. They have returns from all
the precincts in the city. An in
spection Of the votes indicates that
the remainder Of the ticket will be
republican, except judge Of the Po-
lice Court.
CINCINNATI, April 5. 1926 a. NJ
The labor men are shouting at their
headquarters and on the streets in
honor of their supposed victory.
The board Of election has revised
its computation and finds a mistake
which shows that Smith, rep, is
elected by over 600 majority.

How To Find a Drowned Body.

from the Hawkinsville (Ga. Dispatch. J
We learn. that two negroes tied
their clothing to the backs of their
necks and attempted to swim the
river near Abbeyville about two
weeks since. One of them gained
the opposite bank in safety, but the
other drowned. The plan for recov-
ering the dead body was rather a
novel one. An old darkey took
bundle of fodder and placed it in the
river where the drowning negro first
sank, when it foated down about fif-
ty yards and suddenly stopped and
commenced to whirl slowly round
and round. Here the old negro div
ed down and secured the body. He
claims to have recovered four or five
other lost bodies by this means in
his experience, and declares it to be
an infallible guide.

Patriotism Versus Partisanship.

The municipal election in Chicago
was walk-over for Roche, the Re.
publican candidate. The contest
was peculiar one. The Republi-
cans put up Mr.. Roche and stuck to
him. The Democrats nominated
Carter Harrison, and he accepted,
but he afterwards declined, and fol-
lowed up his declinasion with two
more refusals of the tender of the
nomination. The Democrats tried
to get another man to take the
place, but they were not Successful
The fight then lay between Mr..
Roche, the Republican candidate,
and Nelson, the nominee of the So-
cialists and Anarchists. Asa Chica-
go Democrat expressediit, it was a
fight of the Star.Spangled Banner
against the red flag. Political dis
tinctions were brushed aside, and all
good citizens, Republicans and DEM
ocrats alike, threw their support to
Mr.. Roche. Carter Harrison tried
to elect Nelson; but in such crisis,
when the future and welfare of the
great city were at stake, mere parti
sanship did not triumph over patriot
ism, and the result was a magnifi
cent majority for the man who for
the time being bacame champion
of his country and its institutions.
Mr.. Roche, in a speech delivered
last Saturday night, said !:
"a victory thus obtained over the
Socialistic party will be victory of
the people of which every patriotic
voter may justly feel proud. 1t will
be the triumph of law over lawless-
ness; of order over disorder; of
good government over anarchy; of
the doctrine of private ownership
and individual rights over the yawn-
ings of conf scation and the Com
mune.n
That is just what the victory in
Chicago MEANS Bdlto. american.

Guilty Election Officers.

BALTIMORE, April Corrupt pol
itics received another blow in the
courts to-day in the conviction of
election officers for fraud. Charles
M. Owens Isaiah Waters, j ohm Bran
don, John b. Saner and William j.
Byrne, judges and clerks of election,
were charged with conspiracy to de-
fraud at the last municipals election
in the Seventh Precinct of the First
Ward. The trial has been in pro-
gress in the criminal court for the
past six days.
The testimony showed that forty
three persons were returned as hav-
ing voted at this election who did
not vote. Many of them were out
of the city and three of them were
dead. The election law compels the
appointment of Republican as one
of the three judges of election. The
Republican selected in this instance
was Democrat and the judge and
clerks ran things their own way.
When the list was made up it was
found that the regular candidate did
not have enough votes. Then the
names of the dead and absent ones
were added. The change in the
sheet was one of the strongest pieces
of evidence offered by the prosecu-
ton. Most of the people reported
as having voted were on the stand
to prove the crime charged against
the defendants.
The testimony was conclusive, but
from the fact that convictions of this
kind have been very rare in Balti.
more and the jury remained out ov-
er an hour disagreement was look
ed upon as foregone conclusion.
When at the end of an hour and a
half the jury came in with a verdict
Of guilty, the news fell like a thun-
derbolt upon the defendants. Sew
eral of them burst out crying. The
case will go to the Court of Appeals
at once. The conviction is the
cause of a great deal of qualification
among the better classes of people.

A Destructive Animal.
From the St. Mary's Enterprise

From the st. Mary's Enterprise.
DIR. r. Pinkney Blackstone, OF
the Seventh election district, reports
roaming at large an unknown and
ferocious looking animal, about the
size of a half grown yearling,
having q thick, black and shaggy
head and shoulders, with light tips
and tail. 1t made its first appear
ance on Friday last, and has been
seen by many inhabitants of the dis
trict, though not by the Doctor.
Several cows are thought to have
been devoured by this unknown mon
ster. 1t was last seen on Saturday
evening, chasing Mr.. Richard III.
M. Gamers cattle, and now is
thought to be in our near Church
Swamp. Posses have been formed
and diligent search is being made.
The only thing the Doctor says be
can vouch for was the narrow escape
he made from being shot on Satur-
day night last by four men while re-
turning from a professional call.
From the description given us, il is
similar to, if not, the hyena that was
80 destructive in Hartford county
some weeks ago.

The Chicago Elections.

CHICAGO, April 6.--The latest re-
turns have not materially changed
the standing of the vote as announc
ed last night. The last figures Civ.
en- out are Roche rep J, 81 ,26S /;
Nelson (Labor), 23,4l0; Roche's
majority, 81, 1858. In aldermen yes
terday's ostensiblc result is the cleo
tion of thirteen Republicans, four
Democrats and one Labor man. The
new council will stand, with the
hold.over aldermen I: Republicans,
twenty-five; Democrats, ten; Labor,

The other suburban towns went

The leaders Of the Knights of La
Dor among the United Labor party
were, as rule, very much Disguised
at the result. In an interview print
ed this morning, one of them says !:

us, and we viii never have any sue

the Socialists. The Committee Of
Twenty-Five will meet on Thursday
evening, and we will settle the ques-
tion then The Labor party must
hereafter fight on labor issues only.
We must put our feet on Socialists
and the whole crowd of red flag agi-
tators, or there is no hope for us. /
repeat, the red flag was the cause of
cur defeat. The people will not toll
craze Anarchism, Socialism or Com
munism. But we will settle this ques-
ton on Thursday evening. We
must and will wash our hands of the
red flag and compel the Socialists to
take back seat
In commenting on the result Of
yesterdays election, the Times
says: "rhe people Of Chicago have
their answer in no uncertain tones
to the brazen demand Of the Hay
market banditti for surrender Of
the municipal government into their
blood-stained hands. The candidate
of the red-flag barbarians for the
mayoralty has been defeated by a
majority approximating twenty
eight thousand, and his associates
on the city and town tickets have
suffered like righteous fate. The re-
suit is magnificent triumph for the
intelligence and conscience of Chi
cago. 1t is splendid vindication
of the patriotism, the common sense
and the sturdy manhood Of the great
masses of her people. 1t is crush
ing rebuke to demagogues and trick
sters of the Carter Harrison type,
who, to promote their unhallowed
ambition and lust Of power, have
dallyed with lawlessness, and wan
tonly trifed with the safety, the
prosperity and the good name Of
this community. 1t is notice to the
world that the tide of barbarism

Henry Ray, of Gilmer, Texas, has
discovered the secret of the quail's
being able to hide so well. He was
walking in a field when a covey of
birds was flushed. One alighted
near him, and the moment it did so
seized a dead oak leaf, crouched to
the ground, and threw the leaf over
it's back, so that it was completely
hidden from view. Mr.. Ray said
that he had to go and turn over the
leaf before he could believe the evil
dence of his own eyes.
